    I always buy real Microsoft products for my Xbox now after learning the hard way. Its working perfectly as I suspected, no treble with the wireless syncing. worth every penny of the couple extra dollars for the very best quality.

    Not much of an upgrade in the physical aspect compared to the Xbox one controller. I know has updated features and technology but compared to the DualSense 1 for the PS5 this one nothing new. For the same price though as last Gen Xbox it's still good controller, the reason why for 5 stars still. Buttons feel good and snappy, texture maybe slightly better feeling. Overall still enjoying it. Used for my PC
